Celle sur le stade Delorimier est accessible sur Internet, mais pas encore celle-ci, car elle vient d'être déposée. En voici un résumé.


NOM(S): *Braganza, Paul Michael Henry
TITRE(S): The Montreal first nine [microform]: a
study of English language newspaper
coverage of baseball in nineteenth
century Montreal (Quebec)
ÉDITEUR: Ottawa : Library and Archives Canada =
Bibliothèque et Archives Canada, 2007.
DESCRIPTION: microfiches. .

COLLECTION: Canadian theses = Thèses canadiennes.
NOTES: Thesis (M.A.)--Concordia University, 2006.
Includes bibliographical references.

RÉSUMÉ DE L'ÉTUDIANT(E): Political and economic changes,
particularly a shift away from an
economic dependence on the trading of
raw materials, and increased
industrialization, helped establish new
kinds of élites, the industrialists and
professional bourgeoisie. These men,
some of whom had nationalist leanings,
appropriated two First Nations
activities, snowshoeing and lacrosse.
Lacrosse became so popular that there
was little room for other summer sports,
including baseball. Frozen waterways in
winter also meant that summer was a busy
business season, and meant that summer
sports such as baseball had little
chance of becoming popular in the city
before the 1850s. Eventually, however,
ties between Montréal and American
industrialists allowed for a cultural
exchange which, among other things,
brought a new brand of news reporting
and baseball. Although Montrealers were
not particularly skilled at baseball,
bourgeois and working class men alike
enjoyed the game from 1870s onward.
Popularity increased so much, that by
the early 1880s, Montréal entered its
first golden age of baseball. The
English language newspapers eagerly
reported on the state of club affairs,
listed box scores, and covered games.

On laisse vraiment le monde faire des thèses sur n'importe quoi!

Je blague bien sûr! (la mienne est sur l'analyse des réseaux à l'aide de la théorie des jeux...)
